Bless You and the Wednesday Stamp Club

Today I've used this week's Wednesday Stamp Club sketch to put together a special thank you for my 3rd grader's teacher. She's been really helpful to both of us with what is proving to be a really TOUGH year.  She works hard and I want her to know how appreciated she is.

The Modern Morocco Die-namics is fabulous for more elegant designs.  I cut it from Pink Lemonade card stock and then layered it over a piece of Primitive Cream card stock. Just a little bit of liquid adhesive (Tombo Multi or a good old Glue Pen) will do the trick to hold it in place.  

I love pairing my Die-naimcs flowers, today I've used the Scalloped Rolled Flower - which in my opinion looks so lovely cut from felt paired with a Royal Rose.  The Royal Leaves were cut from Factory Green card stock, molded and the edges darkened with a bit of Distress Ink.  I've got a beautiful Pink Lemonade Button nestled in there too. 

The sentiment is so beautiful from Lisa Johnson's Cheerful Blessings stamp set.  It's sitting on top of the Heirloom Label Die-namics - the oval was cut using the oval included in the Layered Label.  

By the way, if you like this sentiment, i've got another card using one of the other sentiments from this stamp set tomorrow! 

Here is this week's sketch, it's one that is wide open to interpretation and I just love that!  I can't wait to see what everyone else comes up with for this pretty little sketch.  Be sure to visit the MFT Blog to add your link so we can all admire it! After all, one lucky participant will win a gift certificate of up to $20 to the MFT Boutique!

Here are the links to the products I've used in today's card. Thanks for stopping by and see you again tomorrow!

Pucker Up!

It is Wednesday People! What a crazy week its been, but what a fun one. This release has been a blast, and I hope you've loved every minute of it. I know I sure did! I saved my sample for Pure Innocence: Pucker Up for you because I wanted to use this fabulous sketch!

You'll see one of my new fave papers Pink Paislee Hometown Summer - isn't this watermelon paper totally fabulous? How about the teeny scale of the papers on this 6x6 pack? Just amazing for cardmakers.

Look at this cutie with her sweet little pig-tails. She's all set up to make some cash at her little lemonade stand. (the girls that live across the street from me do this and its SO stinkin' cute...)

As always, I hope you'll play along in this week's MFT Wednesday Stamp Club. We're on our eighteenth week. And I'm happy to say I've done all the sketches. How YOU doing with those sketches? This one is UBER cute, so I do hope you'll give it a go! Just upload your creation to the Splitcoast Galleries using the keyword MFTWSC18. 

Since this is the start of the May Sketches, it means if you participate in ALL the sketches this month, you'll also be eligible for the May BONUS Prize, its a special thank you to one winner, selected at random, who has completed  ALL of the May WSC sketches! 

Wednesday Stamp Club - March Sketches Begin

I hope you've had a blast the last few days following along with the big My Favorite Things release, and our monthly Shop Hop. But now, its Wednesday, so its time for the newest installment of the Wednesday Stamp Club - with a brand new sketch!

Remember you'll want to play along each week for a chance at a $15 prize (make that $20 if you're using MFT stamps!) and each month, there is a bonus winner selected for one lucky player who has played in all of the challenges in any given month!

Now we're beginning our March sketches, so if you haven't been playing along weekly, there's no time like the present to jump on in!

I bought this paper a few months ago, and knew I'd pair it with this sweet What's Cooking image within the a la modes collection. The paper has been patiently waiting for me to make good on my promise. ;-)


As you can see, I'm back to the kraft paper. I love it. I use MFT's Fossil Cardstock... the cardbase is Whip Cream, nice and fresh and clean.... The mixing bowl is coated in a thick coat of Glossy Effects for a shiny enamel finish!

I sure do hope you'll play along in the sketch challenge. You'll find us chatting over on the MFT Forum on Splitcoast Stampers!
